We have started the Humanitarian Group with a Bang! I think that we are at nearly 250 caps, and many blankets (from the Achievement Day girls). What a tremendous effort! And so much fun!
Thanks to Diana Scott for opening her home and welcoming us all there. Thanks to all of you who braved the snow. Thanks to Camille Ebert for providing dessert. Especially, thanks to Amy Sievers who was a terrific first guest-speaker. She makes me wish I were brave enough and smart enough to be her. Her work treating cancer through PIH in Africa is remarkable. I am sorry you could not all meet her.
Again, thanks for the knitting and crocheting and the fellowship of making hats.

Now ye may suppose that this is afoolishness in me; but behold I say unto you, that by bsmall and simple things are great things brought to pass....
